My greatest strength? Hope. It's what gives me the will to keep on going. And believe me, where I come from that's not easy. Hope, I mean. Sure, surviving in the world after the Big Death is it's own kind of strength. The kind you've got to find, way down deep inside. People like Kurdy and Jeremiah and Theo were born with it. They're fighters. And they've each got something to fight for. It's what gives them the strength to do what they have to do to make it through another day.
For me, it's Hope. It's out there if you know how to look for it. Everywhere. No, really. Look at any town or village – any community of people working together – and you'll see it. Families. And children. They're our hope for the future. Especially the children. They're learning from the mistakes of our parents. From our mistakes, too. As long as there are children, the future has a chance.
As long as I have my daughter Rose, I have hope. And the strength to keep on living.
